Match Threads Chelsea vs Spurs - Match Thread

I can't believe he's an England regular.

Dier has been crap but he has also just come back from a layoff. Needs to stop pressing because Llorente cannot start the press up top, so the back line can just pick a pass and the press is broken.

Switched to a back three

 

[Phomesy]

Nice play.

 

[noiseboy55]

wing backs to put crosses in for hightower

 

[mattyspurs]

We’ll win it.

 

[hutchiniho]

Pretty much the whole 11 not looking anyway near their best
Way to many misplaced passes
Llorente adding nothing
Eriksen having a very quiet season
Credit to winks though, giving his best.

Tottenham can be so disappointing. Do well, get close. But that’s it.

What exactly is poch supppsed to do? Risk players and fuck up future games? we're just in a really shit spot.

Im not gunna lose my shit over this situation cause its unfair on the players and poch.

They'd just bring in Willian or Hudson Odoi, Giroud and Kovacic. Miss Kane and Son and we are a mid table team. We can just about scrape by maybe with Dele or Lamela as a false 9, but in reality we're shocking without the 2, let alone the 3.

They could but they'd be nowhere near as good. In fact they'd suffer in general without Hazard who is comfortably their best player. Plus Jorginho makes the midfield happen for them.

Fair play to our fans still singing

 

[SirNiNyHotspur]

we got a shot! not on target but we got a shot!

 

[TheRevolution]

Decent play!?

 

[paulcumpstone]

shock horror no subs, no doubt poch is so happy

 

[glacierSpurs]

Oh my, Llorente is on the side where Rose crosses the ball, he could not reach the ball still...

 

[Paceyjg]

Is there any reason why we aren't peppering their goal with crosses and high balls, given that our best chance to score is from a header or knock down from Llorente?

 

[yankspurs]

We need at least 2 players this window.

 

[michaelden]

Well I'm glad I don't have sky now

It’s not our way

 

[St José Dominguez]

Playing a 3 of Dier, winks and Sissoko doesn’t help any of them. I know he had no choice playing them all but I hate this diamond. Should’ve pushed either Sissoko or Winks further forward.

 

[dirtyh]

either we show our stones and get back in this or go down gloriously kicking the living fuck out of anything in blue. should be a fun half.

 

[spurs mental]

Such a shame Dembele is gone. This game is perfect for him
